God is AWESOME!!!!

OK...so I am new at this (thanks to my friend Emily Tate)!! I thought this was a great way to share with friends and family what is going on in mine and Brad's life. We have a lot to share these days! Well, here goes! As of January 21st, Brad (we) surrendered to the ministry. It is a decision that he has been battling with God about for about 10 years now. He FINALLY listened. Well, the first step was deciding if he would attend seminary, and if so, where. We began to pray that God would just show us what his plan for us was. We started doing our research on different schools, and we became REALLY interested in Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth, TX. Our first step was for Brad to fill out his application and see if that is where God had in store for us to go! We have been praying that if that is where God wants us, that Brad would get accepted, and if not, we were willing to accept that that was not where He wanted us and he has somewhere better in store for us. SOOOOOO, as of Monday, March 9th, we are officially going to be residence of Fort Worth, TX in mid to late July for at least 3 years!!!! We are SO EXCITED!!!! My mom cried like a baby, and of course our families are sad that we are leaving, but they are VERY excited for us. I believe that God is taking us out of our "comfort zones" for a reason. Brad and I both are leaving 2 of the BEST workplaces anyone could ask for, and that is a challenge!!!! I absolutely love my school, and I can only pray and rely on God that he is going to provide a job for me in TX that is just as amazing!!!! Please be praying for us as we take this HUGE step in our lives!!!!!
